Throughout her life, North Carolina native Ana Brown has always felt a deep connection to the ocean.

Self-taught artist and muralist, Ana’s love of painting began while growing up at Wrightsville Beach, NC and spending time with her grandmother, from whom she received her first artist brushes. Not knowing where art would lead her, with each stroke of the brush, Ana felt her calling more and more… to take the often overlooked and transform it into something truly beautiful.

Today, Ana finds herself strolling the beach collecting oyster shells. She assembles them like puzzle pieces, creating vibrant compositions that reflect the coastal rhythm.
